Integrate with Hugging Face Transformers¶
Hugging Face Transformers provide general-purpose Machine Learning models for Natural Language Understanding (NLP). Transformers give you easy access to pre-trained model weights, and interoperability between PyTorch and TensorFlow.
Instrument Transformers with Comet to start managing experiments, create dataset versions and track hyperparameters for faster and easier reproducibility and collaboration.
Comet SDK | Minimum SDK version | Minimum transformers version |
---|---|---|
Python-SDK | 3.31.5 | 4.43.0 |
Start logging¶
Connect Comet to your existing Transformers Trainer
code by configuring it through environment variables.
Add the following lines of code to your script or notebook:
import comet_ml
from transformers import AutoModelForSequenceClassification, Trainer, TrainingArguments
# 1. Enable logging of model checkpoints
os.environ["COMET_LOG_ASSETS"] = "True"
# 2. Define your model
model = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained(
...
)
# 3. Train your model
trainer = Trainer(
model=model,
args=training_args,
train_dataset=train_dataset,
eval_dataset=test_dataset,
compute_metrics=compute_metrics,
)
trainer.train()
Log automatically¶
By integrating with Transformers Trainer
object, Comet automatically logs the following items, with no additional configuration:
- Metrics (such as loss and accuracy)
- Hyperparameters
- Assets (such as checkpoints and log files)
End-to-end example¶
Get started with a basic example of using Comet with the Transformers Trainer
.
You can check out the results of this example Transformers experiment for a preview of what's to come.
Install dependencies¶
python -m pip install "comet_ml>=3.44.0" "transformers>=4.43.0" datasets torch scikit-learn accelerate

Try it out!¶
Here's an example for using Comet with Transformers.
Configure Comet for Transformers¶
You can control which Transformers items are logged automatically, by setting the following environment variables:
export COMET_MODE=GET_OR_CREATE # Set to GET to always continue logging to an existing experiment or CREATE to always create a new experiment
export COMET_START_ONLINE=1 # Set to 0 to run an Offline Experiment
export COMET_LOG_ASSET=True # Set to False to disable logging model checkpoints
export COMET_PROJECT_NAME=<your project name> # Configure your project name
export COMET_OFFLINE_DIRECTORY=<path to offline directory> # Folder to use for saving offline experiments when `COMET_MODE` is "OFFLINE"
Note
Previous versions of the Transformers integration were using COMET_MODE
to control whether to create an online or offline Experiment. You should now use the COMET_START_ONLINE
to control whether to create an online or offline Experiment.
